COURSES

I post Grammar Shots on YouTube with cursory explanations of grammar concepts.  But if you’re looking to deep dive, you can take one of my courses.

My courses are particularly great for homeschooled students as well as public and private school students who want to strengthen their writing skills.

This course is a work in progress. It currently covers the definition of grammar, the reasons we should master grammar, informal and formal language and when to use each, and nouns.

This course will be available in the near future. It will begin with the origins and history of the English language and will focus on morphology, roots, prefixes, and suffixes.

DICTION (COMING SOON)

This course will detail the mechanics of proper word choice, focusing on frequently confused words such as their and there, your and you’re, affect and effect, and fewer and less.
